Did I miss the grab rails? Safety before looks in yacht design. Anyone slid across the cabin sole only to find a dangerous fitting breaking the slide and injury occurring?

It may not be apparent looking at the pictures, but once you start using the space you begin finding what works well and what irritates the hell out of you.

Simple things like the position of grab rails going down to the cabin, or the layout of the head and position of the toilet, and especially the amount and location of usable storage. Other considerations are the ease of cleaning surfaces and what happens when things get wet (they will at some point when you’re sailing). Port design – after it rains and you open a port, does in empty into the cabin or did the designer think of that?

It has to work well and it should look beautiful – why would I want to spend any time in a space that doesn’t?
